The YJ MGC Beta 2x2 (Magnetic) is a fast, modern 2x2 speed cube built for clean alignment, stable high-speed turning, and a lightweight feel. Piece magnets add crisp “clicks” that help your layers snap into place, making the cube easier to control when you’re turning quickly. A hollowed, lightweight structure and stability-focused magnet positioning help reduce wobble, while big corner-cutting adds forgiveness when your turns aren’t perfectly straight.
